Discern command

The DISCERN command is a new command released with DR 3.0 that is used to gain information about spells.

Syntax

• DISCERN <spell>
• DISCERN <magic device>

Effects

DISCERN allows you to learn more information about a spell that you can cast.

This ability only works on spells that you are able to cast, including spells that you have memorized as scrolls and spells contained in a magical device such as a runestone.

Example

> discern ease

The Ease Burden spell does precisely what the name implies. Through the careful weaving of kinetic force, providing support particularly along the subject's shoulders and lower back, the caster is able to ease the burden of carrying heavy objects on the recipient of the spell.

This is a non-battle spell that can be cast on a single target. Non-battle spells have significantly longer preparation times than battle spells. It can be cast without a target and on other adventurers. It requires a minimum of one mana streams, and can expand to a maximum of ninety-eight mana streams woven into it. To begin to be able to cast this spell, you will need to reach the rank of a lowly novice. By the time you have mastered this spell, you will be ranked as an authority in your abilities as a caster. It requires the Augmentation skill to cast effectively. This spell has no prerequisites. It will also cost one spell slot.

You think you could weave at most 27 mana streams into this spell.

Roundtime: 8 sec.
